Funny you started this today. Hawthorne sent out a facebook status update today saying they were in all day meetings to plan for a great 2013. I wondered if maybe those meetings would produce the who does what's moving forward.

I agree, at least for Oct, early Nov, late Mch, and April. I enjoy playing Remington Park but I never would have even looked at initially it if it wasn't running at night. I think HAW would get action.

If you guys would just put on better and more appealing races with squeakier clean integrity, the world would bet more, and all would be well with Illinois racing. The tracks can't do it all - you guys own the horses. The problem with Illinois racing is simple - people aren't betting enough on it.

i dont know much bout walsh personally terry for the record and hes comin in steppin in a big pile of sh1t so id most likely be inclined to give him a pass for the spring meet unless he messes up royally

I take it you also don't agree that Mr. Carey keeps a tight rein on things. Please elaborate. With a new Asst. GM, are you predicting the expenditure of all sorts of money on all sorts of improvement projects like the backside and tracks surface and air conditioning and so on, that were NOT done under the old GM?

it is of some interest i have as i read about jim miller leaving hawthorne.he goes back a long time there, at least a decade, i remember back to a day when he and peter golassi had a cable show on at 10PM.. they would recap hawthorne, and had a derby preview / prep race review segment,that was most informative.

that was a good show, and one that could have taken to the publics interest and made many fans that are not into the game.

well, he has a new door, and time to make new dreams.

ii'm sure the wind will blow the sand over his memory of hawthorne as time presses on down the trail of the future. he'll see the sun high in the big sky soon enough, he always does.
